Inteq Business Systems Analysis Specialist Certificate

The journey to high-performing business analysis has a myriad of starting points:

• Directly from graduate/undergraduate programs.
• Established business analysts leveling-up their skills.
• IT professionals, Project Managers and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) moving into Business Analyst roles.
• Other professions (CPAs/Financial Sector, Service Sector, Military, etc.) moving into Business Analyst roles.
• – and many other starting points.

Many people learn business and systems analysis informally through on-to-job experience. This approach takes years and can result in gaps in knowledge. Regardless of your starting point Inteq training jump starts the process, enables you to fill-in the gap, ties together informal knowledge and provide you with additional best practice techniques, frameworks, and methods to supercharge and energize your skills.

Regardless of your starting point and current position:

• The performance gap between the current state of many organizations vs. the current and future state demands of today’s fast moving hyper-competitive business environment is rapidly growing. Closing this gap requires high performing business analysts.

Q: I completed one or more Inteq training courses prior to enrolling in an Inteq certificate program. Do these courses apply to the certificate program?

A: Yes. The courses that are part of a certificate program that you completed prior to enrolling in a certificate program count towards the completion of that certificate program. The certificate program pricing will be prorated based on the prior courses. Your course advisor can provide more details and assist with the enrollment.

Q: Can I switch to a different certificate program after starting the original certificate program?

A: Yes. The courses that you complete from the original certificate program prior to switching to a new certificate program, that are part of the new certificate program, transfer to the new certificate program.

Additionally, you receive a credit for the remainder of courses from the original certificate program (i.e. courses that you did not yet take) that you can apply to the new certificate program. Your course advisor can provide more details and assist with the transfer.

Q: Can Inteq create a custom certificate program for my organization?

A: Yes. We are happy to work with your organization to create a certificate program tailored to the specific needs and objectives of your organization. Please contact us to discuss this option in more detail.

Q: What is the difference between an Inteq Specialist Certificate and an Industry Certification?

A: Inteq Specialist Certificate programs are based on completing a series of courses that are tightly aligned with the competencies associated with each certificate program.

Completion of the courses that comprise the certificate program and the award of a Specialist Certificate demonstrate competence and professionalism in a cohesive body of knowledge and the associated skills, methods, and techniques.

Inteq's Specialist Certificates provide tangible trusted credentials for recognition as a high-performing business analysis professional and clearly differentiates you from other practitioners in the business analysis space.

An industry certification is typically offered through an industry association such as IIBA, PMI, etc. Certification requirements typically include completion of a designated number of class hours, completion and passing of a set of exams, a designated number of hours of verified hands-on work in the subject matter, and typically the completion and submission of a project that is evaluated by the certifying body.

The courses associated with Inteq Certificate Programs are accredited by ACCET and are aligned with various industry association standards such as IIBA. Accordingly, Inteq training courses can assist you in your journey should you choose to also move forward with an industry association certification.
